Randy Hoover, who was appointed interim chief executive officer of Oconee Regional Medical Center in July, announced his resignation Tuesday.

The Board of Directors said in a statement Wednesday they accepted Hoover's resignation. They said other candidates are already being interviewed for the role.

One resignation after another has been announced and accepted due to the financial challenges the hospital has faced over the last few years. Several doctors in the area also expressed their concerns when ORMC laid off about a dozen people in May.

Jean Aycock, who was the CEO of the hospital, resigned in May. The chief financial officer, Brenda Qualls, resigned in August.
